Özet

Discover the fascinating and cutting-edge science behind the greatest question of all: is there life beyond Earth? For millennia, we have looked up at the stars and wondered whether we are alone in the universe. In the last few years, scientists have made huge strides towards answering that question.

In The Aliens Are Coming!, comedian and best-selling science writer Ben Miller takes us on a fantastic voyage of discovery, from the beginnings of life on Earth to the very latest search for alien intelligence.

What soon becomes clear is that the hunt for extraterrestrials is also an exploration of what we actually mean by life. What do you need to kick-start life? How did the teeming energy of the big bang end up as frogs, trees and quantity surveyors? How can evolution provide clues about alien life? What might it look like? (Probably not green and sexy, sadly.)

As our probes and manned missions venture out into the solar system, and our telescopes image Earthlike planets with ever-increasing accuracy, our search for alien life has never been more exciting - or better funded.

The Aliens Are Coming! is a comprehensive, accessible and hugely entertaining guide to that search and our quest to understand the very nature of life itself.

Ben Miller has a great ability to simplify the world of science. even a dolphin would understand (read it and it will make sense) not only that , his humour keeps you hooked on the subject. Great book

I've lost count of the number of books I've read on the subject of the hunt for life off-planet, but this was one of the better ones. Ben Miller makes it so much more digestible with his plain and simple science mingled with pseudo-sarcasm, barbed wit and an agreeable presentation style. The section on the evolution of biology on planet Earth was a touch too long and heavy going, losing the flow somewhat, but overall worth every bit of the credit it took to acquire it.

An enjoyable "science-made-easy" (almost) journey

Liked the book. The title & cover is a bit misleading, and done to sell more books

Did enjoy the book, although author goes on a few tangents that aren't relevant (e.g. full story behind who found the Rosetta Stone etc)

Would have benefitted from some discussion on UFO's, who seem more likely than others to be true,

Good ( if misleading)

Brilliant, witty, well presented and read. A fascinating wealth of knowledge. I would highly recommend.

not just about aliens
